Experimental and Analytical Study of the Effect of Shot Peening on Gear Micropitting and Contact Fatigue Failure
The ISO/TS 6336-22:2018 calculation method of the micropitting load capacity is based on the principle that micropitting occurs when the minimum specific lubricant film thickness of a gear is below a permissible value for the specific film thickness. So, the safety factor against micropitting is defined as the ratio between the minimum specific film thickness of the lubricant and the permissible specific film thickness of the lubricant.
